Headless Horseman, Part 2
Phil Elverum
Like the headless horseman who returns to town to get his head
I’ve come back to town to get mine
But unlike his way of neighing loud and beheading boastfully
I snuck in to get mine
“Oh what a loss”
I used to say
“Oh what a loss”
It’s true today
It was a precious thing we lost
And I come back to town
To get my head
I’ve come over hills, I’ve dug up graves
To show my bed
Well, I don't really know where I'm going with that
